After checking with a few of the UK agency's it would seem that even if you dont live in the UK your still liable for UK Tax , So its down to PAYE or limited company . Yes you will be offered the services of a umbrella company costing you .

Why bother going via a UK agency when there are so many agency's based out of the UK , But the choice is yours .When I do get the time I will sort out this list so you can see which is UK Based and which is not .

Please remember its the agency's job to get you offshore and earning them money and they will tell you anything .

Some of the UK agencies really dont know how to Implement the new HMRC rules ,, If you are non UK resident and not working in UK waters you are not liable for UK tax but some of the agencies are full of B/S other are lazy or ignorant .....going with Non UK agencies will shake the industry up they have dominated for too long at our expense

I have added a few new ones but removed a few that since they seem to be none active on the Rov side of things any more . I think with the down turn in the industry I think more will change or go under .

Its very clear however that many of the jobs on offer are not real requirements its just a way of fishing for personnel for next season however its not good news for those looking for employment .

The ''down turn'' as you put it Raptor is quite normal for this time of year - Been like that since day dot for Freelance personnel, unless you have a 'regular' slot agreement.

This is the time that agencies will do pretty much anything to get your CV on their books - More CV's, the 'better' they look to a prospective client - nothing new there either. It's also their chance to "Compare the Market' See who's has been hiring, from your history, and gauge rates.

You might want to consider removing any email addresses that are not to a domain registered with a company i.e Hotmail, Gmail etc, as these are most certainly not used for a legitimate reason unfortunately.

Going direct is OK, if you have experience in dealing with Co's and understand every little detail of the small print in a contract.

Agency's have been around a very long time and unfortunately there are good ones and bad ones .As for getting people on there books the last thing you need when searching for employment is a load of fake jobs .

When you have a mortgage to pay and a family to support any information on finding employment is useful domain or any others .
My intentions with this list is to give those some idea how many agency's there are out there dealing with Rov Personnel and not the few that flood this forum .

As for going direct or via agency that's up to the individual however we all ready know from reading past topics on this forum how much money the agency earns off your back money that should be in your pocket and not there's.

I fully understand that every body is searching for work at the moment however its very clear from looking at the web that allot of the agency requirements on offer are Fake and just searching for Cvs and information.

For those of us living out of the UK your still liable for UK Tax even on Non UK jobs , So its down to PAYE or limited company . Yes you will be offered the services of a umbrella company costing you .

Why bother going via a UK agency when there are so many agency's based out of the UK , But the choice is yours .When I do get the time I will sort out this list so you can see which is UK Based and which is not .

Please remember its the agency's job to get you offshore and earning them money and they will tell you anything .
